Chapter 1487 She’s Zhang Yumeng

“Where does Zhang Yumeng come from? She’s such an expert!”

Many people gasped when they saw this scene, and they thought it was terrifying.

“Just this sea of flames is enough to allow her to become one of the most outstanding amongst the younger generation of the sect.”

“What a powerful supernatural power! This is definitely her unique skill. Otherwise, the sea of flames would be utterly incapable of displaying such terrifying might.”

“It’s really… extraordinary,” the Peak Master of the Swordbamboo Peak muttered in low voice.

Even Xing Nan was shocked. “No wonder I lost. It seems that she didn’t use her full strength when she fought me.”

For a moment, he seemed to have understood something. It might be too easy for her to fight him.

More and more people began to talk about it.

Buzz!

However, when the attacks collided, the scene returned to calm.

Countless eyes were fixed on the place where the two’s powerful secret skills and supernatural powers met.

The sea of flames was burning the Sword Qi of the raindrops.

“Hmm?”

Hun Shang felt a trace of pressure. He focused his eyes and had to deal with the sea of flames with all his strength.

“Raindrops…

“Such a powerful flame.”

But Hun Shang was not nervous. He made a casting gesture with both hands, and his eyes suddenly burst out a green light.

“Raindrops Accumulation!”

Clatter!

Countless raindrops poured down from the sky. At this moment, they gathered into a river, and their power increased five times while they were also more condensed.

At a glance, it was a river in the air.

But everyone could sense that it was like a sword flow.

The Sword Qi moved like a python. As long as the energy above was continuous, the river would not stop.

“Oh my god!”

The Peak Master of Sword Sea Peak was shocked when he saw this. “Hun Shang has figured out an extension of the Raindrops Technique? Such a change in his move is truly quite stunning.”

It was very difficult to change the move of occult art. One could only comprehend some of it after entering a state of sudden enlightenment. However, it was also a big project to achieve integration and mastery.

Now, Hun Shang had developed the Raindrops Technique into a move that could accumulate raindrops.

This aptitude amazed the Peak Master.

What he didn’t know was that after the first level of Raindrops Accumulation, Hun Shang had the second and even the third level of the advanced technique, whose power was greater than the former. Although he was still comprehending and cultivating, he could still perform the third level of Raindrops Accumulation, which evolved from the first level. Only Hun Shang knew how terrifying its power was.

The first level of Raindrops Accumulation reduced the fire Mengmeng had cast.

“Huh?”

Mengmeng felt that something was different.

“He’s quite capable.”

She thought to herself.

“Fire Phoenix Spreading Wings!”

After running her power a bit, Mengmeng cast another powerful occult art.

Creak!

Under everyone’s gaze, a sudden change took place in the endless sea of flames. Waves of fire kept gathering, and gradually, a living fire phoenix appeared.

It raised its head and roared. Its wings moved, pressing upwards.

“What…”

The Peak Master of the Swordbamboo Peak was stupefied. “She has even mastered this supernatural power?”

Opposite them, near the crowd of the Sword Sea Peak, an elder said in shock, “We often present some things while using supernatural powers or occult arts. Take Hun Shang’s moves as an example. They are like a river, a mountain, a tree, a boulder, and some creatures. Without exception, to carve these things, one needs to have a direct understanding of the creatures to display their power. But this is such a vivid fire phoenix. Could it be… could it be that she has seen one with her own eyes? It’s incredible.”

Mengmeng had never seen a fire phoenix, but Zhang Han had not only seen one but also eaten it.

“She’s that powerful?”

Hun Shang’s younger sister, Hun Xuan, had a serious expression.

In the beginning, she was very sure that her brother would win.

However, after witnessing such a scene, she slightly felt uncertain.

“It’s not simple.”

On the other side, Yue Wuwei suddenly stroked his beard and looked at Hun Shang with a meaningful look.

“This boy has great potential,” Zhang Han said calmly.

“Then…” Zi Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly.

“Who do you think will win?” Yue Wuwei said with a smile, “I guess it will be the boy on the opposite side.”

“It has to be Mengmeng,” Yue Xiaonao said.

Zhang Han shook his head slightly and said with a faint smile, “He may not win even if he has great potential. In terms of trump cards, my daughter has even more.”

“But there is still a gap between their strength and their realms,” Yue Wuwei said. “That boy is at the Void-refining Realm Early Stage, and he is not an ordinary cultivator at that. I can tell from the way he displays his occult art that his aura is very steady. I don’t think he has a problem defeating an ordinary cultivator at the Void-refining Realm Middle Stage. Mengmeng is still young. She is only 18 years old and hasn’t cultivated for a long time. It’s amazing that while she’s at the God Transformation Realm Early Stage, she’s fighting a cultivator at the Void refining Realm Early Stage. But she may not be able to defeat that boy.”

“That’s a good analysis.” Zhang Han nodded. He then shook his head several times and, “My daughter can win.”

He was so confident when he spoke.

Because only he knew the background of some of the moves he had taught Mengmeng.

Many of Mengmeng’s occult arts could be extended to the supernatural powers that Zhang Han had comprehended through cultivation. Each of them was a well-known ninth-tier Tribulation Stage skill. How could they be ordinary? The upper limit was extremely high.

Even if Hun Shang had some potential, his skills couldn’t compare with Zhang Han’s. He was a cultivator in the Void-refining Realm. If he was really at the God Transformation Realm Peak Stage as others had said, he might be brutally beaten up.

As the fire phoenix rose into the air, Hun Shang’s pupils contracted slightly. He meditated for a while, and the long sword in his right hand suddenly drew a semicircle.

Buzz!

The incomparably focused defensive layer surrounded him. He turned into a stream of light and quickly dived down.

He was going to fight Mengmeng using close combat.

At the same time, he controlled the first-level Raindrops Accumulation. Its final power used up 70% of the fire phoenix’s energy. He plunged into it. The sword light flickered. It was as if the fire phoenix had exploded internally.

Buzz!

The fire phoenix was forcibly cut apart by him.

“Sword move one, Mountain breaking.

“Sword move two, River Cleaving.

“Sword move three, Sky Piercer Slashes!

“Sword move four, Meteor Transformation!”

“…”

Hun Shang slashed out nine times in succession.

The powerful sword Qi caused an uproar again.

“As expected of the No. 1 Expert in the east of the south coast. How formidable!”

“Zhang Yumeng is also amazing, but she’s still too young.”

“Judging from Hun Shang’s aura and state, he’s probably not far from breaking through to the Void-refining Realm. If he reaches the Void-refining Realm, he can be promoted to the higher-up of the sect!”

The Voiding Realm was the standard for protectors. Because of Hun Shang’s high contribution, he had become a protector while he was at the Peak Stage of the God Transformation Realm.

There were also a lot of such disciples. They had proved that they could break through to the Void-refining Realm. With this ability, they could be regarded as protectors in advance.

But no one knew that Hun Shang was not far from breaking through to the Middle Stage of the Void-refining Realm.

Nothing could hide under the nine sword strikes.

Mengmeng knew very well that in the face of such a move, it was very difficult to escape.

But she had never thought of escaping.

Wasn’t it just a head-on fight?

A trace of fierceness suddenly flashed across Mengmeng’s eyes. A long sword appeared in her right hand. Following her gaze, a crystal-cold light burst out at the same time.

“Whale sucking the sea, awe-inspiring sword Qi!”

Buzz!

A pale yellow sword light instantly absorbed all the energy in all directions.

It included some of the energy dispersed by the Raindrops Technique, the energy dissipated by Mengmeng’s fire phoenix, and the surrounding spiritual Qi.

This was an extremely terrifying devouring power.

Even the energy of Hun Shang’s sword moves was trembling.

“This sword move…” Zhang Han sighed softly and said, “It’s called Dusk Sword.”

Without waiting for Yue Wuwei to ask, Zhang Han muttered, “I got to know an old senior back then, whose understanding of swordsmanship reached its peak. It was rare for him to meet an opponent who could be a match for him in the Cultivation World. Many people called him the Sword God. When I met him, he was already in his late years. He was obsessed with the sword and launched the last strike with all his energy, including his vitality. That strike was earth-shattering. Countless dark clouds of Thunder Tribulations for all the Tribulation Stage cultivators in the Star Area were shattered by the power.

“I’ve learned a lot of sword occult arts and even some supernatural powers from him, but none of them could compare with the Dusk Sword. I comprehended the origin of the Dusk Sword through one of his occult arts. Although it couldn’t be compared with that sword strike, it had nearly half of its power. Just because of that, the Dusk Sword is the top occult art in the swordsmanship of the Cultivation World.

“Although my daughter has only learned a little of it, the power she displayed is still quite good.”

In the end, Zhang Han stopped lamenting and laughed.

“Alas, that’s amazing.”

Yue Wuwei looked at the rising yellow sword light, and his beard trembled.

He was also looking forward to the power of the Tribulation Stage Ninth Tier.

Even Yue Wuwei couldn’t see through the mystery of this sword strike. In fact, there was no mystery about it. It didn’t have an appropriate state of mind, nor did it have that kind of comprehension. It was just tangible.

Although that was the case, Zhang Han’s goal was that Mengmeng could improve her combat capability after mastering it.

He didn’t expect Mengmeng to become that kind of swordsman.

She could become one, but it would not be necessary.

The others were unable to discern the profundities of the Dusk Sword, but they were able to sense its terrifying might.

“What…”

Hun Shang’s face changed slightly. His expressionless face finally changed.

“This sword strike is amazing.”

Hun Shang retreated rapidly and gave up changing his moves and getting close to Mengmeng.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The nine rays of sword light were unable to stop the attack of the Dusk Sword at all.

To everyone’s surprise, after the nine beams of sword light were shattered, all the scattered energy was absorbed by the Dusk Sword’s Sword Qi.

It seemed to have become stronger.

“Nice.”

There was a hint of seriousness in Hun Shang’s eyes.

He kept waving his long sword.

After trying for a while, he finally found a flaw.

As the distance between them grew, he found that Mengmeng’s control of the Dusk Sword’s Sword Qi had also become unstable.

“Continue going up!”

Hun Shang flew high into the sky while resisting the Dusk Sword’s Sword Qi.

Under the gazes of countless people, Hun Shang’s face was solemn as he felt the Sword Qi.

“Keep going up.”

Swoosh!

At first, Hun Shang could be seen by others. Gradually, his face could no longer be seen clearly. His figure appeared as just a black shadow.

Soon, the black shadow became sesame-sized, and after a while, it disappeared.

“What is he doing?”

Many people present were stunned.

“Hun Shang has been beaten away?”

“Heavens, the victor hasn’t been decided yet, yet he directly fled from the scene. Absolutely amazing.”

“Brother…” Hun Xuan covered her forehead. “Even though she’s very strong, he shouldn’t have fled so far, right?”

At this moment, everyone finally found out what Hun Shang was doing.

Because he knew that this sword strike wasn’t easy to resist, he dodged.

But as he kept dodging, the distance became too far.

Everyone assumed that since the distance between Mengmeng and Hun Shang was far, the Sword Qi would naturally dissipate as soon as it reached him.

“Can one fight like that during a duel?”

A fat man in the crowd said, “So does it mean that it will be okay if I’ll leave directly and rest for two hours before continuing to fight during a duel?”

“What is Hun Shang doing?”

The sound of the discussion gradually rang out.

Many people thought that Hun Shang should be able to resist this sword strike.

“Maybe this is Zhang Yumeng’s last trump card. If he pays some price to resist it, won’t he win directly?”

“Yeah. I don’t understand what he’s doing either.”

“…”

“Humph.” Hearing these comments, Yue Xiaonao curled her lips.

Mengmeng had a lot of means. The Dusk Sword was powerful, but in Mengmeng’s case, it was just a sword occult art.

In fact, Yue Xiaonao felt that with Uncle Zhang’s character, every move he taught Mengmeng was likely to be as powerful as the Dusk Sword.

Swoosh!

From afar, everyone could see a black dot.

“He’s back?”

Mengmeng blinked her eyes, looking a little dazed.

This kind of very serious escape method also broadened her horizons.

It was truly special.

This was the first time she had encountered such a situation in a battle of mutual sparring.

“Are we going to continue the fight when you come back?” Mengmeng asked at a distance.

“No.”

Hun Shang looked calm and said bluntly, “I can’t resist your strike. I lost this battle.”

After that, Hun Shang glanced at Hun Xuan in the crowd, nodded, turned around, and left.

In the eyes of the crowd, his back looked a little bleak.

After this battle, Hun Shang was no longer the No. 1 Expert in the east of the south coast, while the rising new star, Zhang Yumeng, replaced him.

“You’re amazing.”

Not only was Hun Xuan not angry, but she also looked at Mengmeng with a smile. Her attitude and tone were very good. “Zhang Yumeng, you are beautiful and so powerful. You are simply a role model for our generation.”

“You’re too courteous,” Mengmeng said with a smile.

“I’ll transfer 1,000 points to you. Also, take these five kinds of sixth-tier spirit treasures.” Hun Xuan took out the treasures.

Seeing this, Mengmeng put them away happily and said, “I can make money by challenging someone. This is a good deal.”

“Well, what do you think of my older brother?” Hun Xuan suddenly asked in a low voice.

“He’s not bad. I think he’s quite amazing.” Mengmeng was stunned.

“He’s also quite handsome, isn’t he?” Hun Xuan asked.

“Well, if you think he’s handsome, he’s handsome,” Mengmeng said with a suspicious look.

“What is Hun Xuan doing?

“Why is she acting like a matchmaker?”

“Ahem, don’t talk nonsense, or my dad will beat you.” Mengmeng couldn’t help reminding her.

“What?”

This time, it was Hun Xuan’s turn to be stunned. She pondered for two seconds and said with a smile, “I don’t talk nonsense. You are from Swordbamboo Peak. I will talk to you when I have time.”

“All right.”

Mengmeng saw that Hun Xuan’s smile was meaningful, and she couldn’t help but feel her scalp tingle.

“Could it be that she is a lesbian?

“Oh my god!”

At the thought of this possibility, Mengmeng gasped.

She was ready to go back and find someone to inquire about Hun Xuan.

“It’s nothing. Congratulations on becoming the No.1 in the east of the south coast. With this title, you’ll get a lot of benefits. Take your time to experience it. Well, I’ll talk to you later. There are too many people here. I’ll go first.”

Hun Xuan said goodbye with a smile and left.

When she turned her head, she saw Hun Shang in the distance, who turned around and looked back.

“Look, my brother can’t help peeping at you. He’s awkwardly adorable. Don’t mind him,” said Hun Xuan.

“Go now, or you’ll really be beaten later,” Mengmeng added.

“Hahaha.”

Hun Xuan smiled and left without saying a word.

What she didn’t know was that Hun Shang’s face was extremely darkened.

“Hun Shang has lost.”

The Peak Master of the Sword Sea Peak shook his head and said, “I don’t blame him. Zhang Yumeng is very powerful. She has such cultivation and occult arts and horrible aptitude at such a young age. It’s lucky for our Sword Sect to have so many talents….”

After that, he took the lead in leaving.

“Hahaha, this is the aptitude that the No. 1 of our Swordbamboo Peak should have!” The Swordbamboo Peak of the Swordbamboo Peak burst out laughing.

“Ahem, ahem. Yeah. Ahem…”

What he didn’t know was that Xing Nan, the former number one cultivator beside him, looked so embarrassed.

He couldn’t help thinking. “Peak Master, if you don’t know how to speak properly, can you stop talking and save some dignity for me?”

“Her name is Zhang Yumeng.”

Some of the elders and protectors stared at Mengmeng for a long time. They shook their heads and left.

They felt that this trip to watch the battle had been worth it.

“Zhang Yumeng, the No.1 martial artist in the east of the south coast.”

“She’s Zhang Yumeng from Swordbamboo Peak.”

“She’s Zhang Yumeng.”

“She’s beautiful, has a sweet voice, and is powerful.”

“…”

At this moment, many people remembered the name Zhang Yumeng.

Everyone began to discuss amongst themselves.

They were shocked and felt like they were dreaming.

Hun Shang, who had dominated for many years, had finally been defeated.

The destruction of one myth represented the rise of another.

“I won.”

Mengmeng flew back to Zhang Han and smiled. There was a familiar look in her beautiful big eyes.

“You’ve already won. You’re truly amazing.”

Zhang Han praised her.

“It sounds like you don’t mean it. That’s what you also said when I was a child,” Mengmeng said grumpily.

“Hahaha!”

Zhang Han laughed heartily, and then his face became serious. “Your combat capability has improved a lot, and your cultivation is very solid. This is related to your daily hard work in cultivation. The choice and performance of the occult arts are very specific and unique. Congratulations, my little princess, your training in combat is already good enough.”

“Haha.”

Mengmeng said with a smile, “I still have to continue to learn from you, Father.”

“Look at how smug you are,” Zi Yan said with amusement.

“My dad just bet that you would lose, Mengmeng.” Yue Xiaonao gave her dad away.

“Did I say that?” Yue Wuwei asked with a puzzled look.

“Yes,” Zhang Han, Zi Yan, and Yue Xiaonao said in unison.

Yue Wuwei was speechless.

Hearing what Yue Xiaonao said, Mengmeng snorted and said, “Xiaonao, I have been underestimated. Shouldn’t you do something about it tonight?”

Yue Xiaonao pondered for a moment and asked, “Do you mean I need to cut off my dad’s beard?”

“That’s right.”

“What a good idea!”

“…”

Hearing their words, Yue Wuwei twitched his mouth.

When they were about to return to their residences, Zhang Han said, “That boy Hun Shang is at the Void-refining Realm Early Stage and can fight an ordinary cultivator at the Void-refining Realm Middle Stage. That’s why Elder Yue said you might lose the battle.”

“What?” Mengmeng was stunned. “But what he showed was the power of the God Transformation Realm Peak Stage. Why did he hide his real strength?”

“I don’t know. Maybe he had some ideas.” Zhang Han shook his head and said with a smile, “How much effort did you make?”

Mengmeng thought for a moment and said, “Seventy percent… or maybe eighty percent of all my strength.”

“It’s more than enough.”

Zhang Han narrowed his eyes slightly and said, “If you had fought with all your strength, you might only win by three points. Or to put it simply, you two are evenly matched.”

“Yes, that’s what I mean. They’re evenly matched. That’s already very impressive,” Yue Wuwei said repeatedly.

Zhang Han suddenly added, “But if it’s a life-and-death battle, he will die without a doubt.”

After he said that, Yue Wuwei suddenly fell silent.

Two seconds later, he nodded heavily and said very seriously, “Yes, in a life-and-death battle, he won’t have a chance of survival.”
